The famous song of the European
lark may be superior to that of our own,
but the mournful melody of the meadow
lark is full Of poetic suggestions. He is
the hermit thrush of the meadows, as
solitary and pensive where the light
hearted bobolink's song jostles the sun
beams, as the lonely hermit is in his
dusky forest loister.-Audubon Maga-

THE TEMPLE OF THE TIRE ES.
BY W. H. HAVNE.

The groves were Gods first temples. Bryant
One slender pine-top, like spire,
In the hushed evening air,
Just as the twilight ceased to be,
Foretold the hour of prayer.
And now the fire-flies, as they fit
Above the silent sod,
Between the long aisles Of the trees,
Are acolytes of God.

Every single action of our life carries
in its train either reward or punishment.

Fried Tomatoes.

Out ripe tomatoes crosswise in halves,
dust them with pepper and salt, and fry
slowly on both sides in butter. When
thoroughly cooked, take them out with
an egg slice, lay them upon a hot dish.
Pour little cream or milk in the frying
pan, thicken with little -four and water,
mixed smoothly together; pour over the
tomatoes and serve hot. Green tomatoes
may be cooked in the same manner, using
the dressing or not.
Another style for frying tomatoes is to
slice the fruit, say in three parts; then
dip each slice into beaten egg; cover with
grated bread or cracker dust, season with
little cayenne pepper and salt, and fry
them in hot butter; brown we'll on both
sides and serve hot.
Tomato Omelet.-Peel and chop fine,
five tomatoes-good size; add salt, pep
per and half teacupful grated bread.
Beat four eggs very light and stir in.
Have skillet Kissing hot; put in a small
piece of butter, pour in mixture, stir till
it begins to thicken. Now let it brown
for two or three minutes on the bottom;
lap half over and slip into hot dish.
Garnish with parsley and rd-boiled
egg.

Here is a recipe from French news
paper for riddng strawberries OF sand
and dirt without washing them, which
sometimes affects their flavor:
Z" Lay them on a piece Of damp cotton
cloth, which must then be shaken about
as you would shake sieve. The work,
in fact, would be facilitated by laying the
cloth in a large sieve. AS the sand will
stick to the moist cloth the berries will
be left in excellent condition for the ia
ble."

A Murderer's Awful Dreams.

Edward Unger, who was sent to Sing
Sing for life for the murder of August
Bo6le, whose body he cut up and shipped
in trunk to Baltimore. is now in the hos
pital of the prison, a sufferer from nervous
prostration. His physical strength before
his trial was great, and his SteadineSs OF
nerve in court was surprising; but his stan-
ina is all gone, and lie has become . nllSera-
BILE covering wreck On the first morning
in the prison ne told keeper that he had
been visited during the night by his dis
membered victim. who had proceeded to
reconstruct himself in the terrified prisoners 5
presence Of this dream he could not be
disabused. He seemed to believe 1t was
reality. Every night it came to him, and
at the end of week he was much broken
down. In the hospital it has been the
same with him, except when he IS kept
very soundly asleep under narcotic lntiu-
ance. He dreams that the mangled pieces
OF his friend are strewn about the room,
where they lie while inanin1ately, as they
did beforehe packed the body in the trunk
and threw the head into the river. Then
the fragments begin TO culver. Soon they
move slowly toward each other, until the:
are in heap. Next, they adjust them
selves into g human form. But the head
is missing. At length that, too, comes
into the room, with its hair dripping with
the water of the river in which il has lain.
With g horrible smile on its face. it places
itself on the shoulders Of the figure, and
menaces the murderer. Gnger shriekS out
st t.is point, and the appariton vaa!sheS
FROM, his imauinot;on- All efforts have
failed to cure him OF these visions, and the
prison physician advises his removal to the
State Asylum for lunatic criminals.

TIE JEWS IN RUSSIA.
Representatives Of a Prosecuted Race Who
Are Hated and Hunted by the People.

Representatives of a Prosecuted Race Who
Are Hated and Hunted by the People.
When Russian sees three men with
gaunt faces, long priestly coats dangling
at their heels and-a lock of hair hanging
over each ear, he says, ssMore govern
ment spies" These Polish Jews should
not be confounded with the thrifty Jews
of America. They are another class OF
people. Their features, their manners,
the cut of their hair, and the fashion Of
their clothing are different from what
one is accustomed to see III New York.
The number of blondes among them IS
surprisingly large. They seldom travel
alone, but in companies roam the plains
OF Russia and Poland, ever talking,
ever restless; watched, feared and hated;
and they in turn ever watching, ever
hating, are never afraid, yet distrust
ever turks in their finely chiseled faces,
The general opinion expressed by the
Russians is that while Polish Jews are
spies by nature, they have remarkable
gifts for business, and that when one OF
them is so fortunate as to get a consider
able sum of money and embark in wheat
speculations, he speedily grows rich,
gathers his clannish friends about him,
forms a colossal combination, through
which, if not prevented by oppression
or legalized conspiracy on the part OF
his Jealous neighbors, he in time is able
to control the business Of his neighbor-
hood. It is not until one has seen these
Polish Jews, watched their strangely ex-
pressive faces and studied their peculiar
character that he appreciates that they
are direct descendants OF the Jews Of
history, who for ages suffered unspeak-
able outages. The wrongs described by
historians are plainly waitteo in their
faces, and as they glide noiselessly along
the street, with restless, Jesuitical eoun-
tenances, one feels suspicious in spite Of
himself. Many OF these people are un-
doubtedly obnoxious. l have seen a
weary woman struggle through the
crowd at railway station to get water
for her little ones, when priestly-look-
ing dervish snatched the cup from her
and drank the with manners OF beast.
Why these yellow-haired wanderers al
ways travel in squads of three no one ex-
plains. They swarm the country. The
cruelties of centuries have given them a
ferocious, hunted look and made them
as brutal as animals, yet their intellect
lifts them above their oppressors, who
call them sEspies.

Governor Thompson and the Painting Bride

assistant Secretary Thompson Of the
Treasury Department is said to be an eN-
pert in reviving swooning persons. but not
until last week did he have an opportunity
to display his skill in that line for the oene-
fit of his official associates. A party oI
New England eNcurSionists were paSS!!. 6
through the department, among them be-
ING a newly married couple. Ia conse-
uuence of over-exertion or the poor sanl
tary condition of the treasury, the young
bride fell in s faint Immediately IN front OF
Governor Thompson's office.
Hearing the coplmotion in the corridor,
Governor Thompson opened his door, and,
taking in the situation at glance, directed
that the faintiDg lady be laid upon the sofa
in his room. The young husband was al
most frantic, and, with utter disregard for
the presence of strangers, ne eadeavored to
restore his wife 70 consciousness by press
ing her to MS bosom and caresSiDg her eN-
trayagantly. Governor Thompson sug-
eested his infallible remedy OF stretching
the patient upon her back. with her head
downward. so aS to allow the blood 10 cir
culate to the brain. The young husband
at first demonstrated against what seemed
TO him 20 be treatment too heroic Tor ms
better half, bat he finally consented, and
in few minutes The young lady was re-
stored and the happy couple rejoined their
friends and continued their sightseeing eS-
pedition.
Governor Thompson says he obtained his
experience in faintiDg cases from old DR..
Geiger, OF Columbia, S. c. The doctor
was called upon to administer to Q lady

found the patient stretched cut upon sofa

ThrasI.ins a Ghost st Midnight.

a night or two ago gentleman living
near Sparkil had occasion at q late
hour to cross the stone bridge over the
SparkM creek, when he encountered the
ghostly object which vas on its nightly
round to frighten people. The man
picked mp a good-sized stone and hurled
It at the object, striking him q pretty
hard blow. The spook became angered
and clinched wiih the man. The gentle
man proved too muscular, however, for
the spectre and grasped i By the throat.
The ghost, IN human voice, begged for
mercy. The Sparkll gentlema.2 re-
tented, and, after discovering the identi-
ty OF the person who had been person
sting ghost. promised to let him go
and not make known his name o1 con-
dition that he give up the spook pusi-
ness. The one who has personated the
ghost and caused the worst scare ever
known in the lower part Of the county Is
a man well known in Piedmont and
Sparkill, but the man who discovered
bis identity sticks faithfully to his
promise not to reveal it.-Nyack q. "

HoGG AND THE DRUMMERs.

Evidently the able, vigorous and sggres.
sive attorney general of Texas has q
spice Of humor wedged in somewhere in
his hesd-matter Of fact legal makeup.
In his speech in the United States court,
at Galveston, Saturday, in the drummer tax
case, looking at Defendant Stockton, the
attorney-general sarcasticalIy remarked:
"Why, your honor, these drummers dig up
twenty-five cents worth of dirt every time
they cross the streets. They tread heavier
than other people" Doubtless the ira
ditional cheek of the drummer on trial
must have swelled into a smile at the
attorney-e eneral's Thrust, and also at the
latter's alusion to the self-importsnce of
drummers in general.
While Mr.. Hogg's chewing up" of the
knight Of the grip may have been neces-
sary to the conduct of this now noted
case, it doubtless was trihe severe on
the fraternity. The fact is, whatever may
bs said of the drummers heavy walking
and digging up the dirt in the streets, ="
cheek, push, aud "self-importance" are as
necessary to the successful drummer
as shop hammer and tongs are
to blacksmith. They are part
OF the necessary makeup Of g
travelling salesman. Who ever SAW or
expected to see a modest, quiet, retiring
drummer: Attorney General Hogg, with
on doubt, if he, himself, wanted q
drummer, would employ Just such
brazen-faced, self-important, "dirt
digging" individual, as he alluded 10 be
fore Judge Sabin. The drummers, as
whole, are a very essential and good class
of people. They always pay their way;
the don't mind leaving their money
wherever they goi they infuse new life
into trade; they are very important fac
tor in advertising a good, progressive
town, or a fine hotel; and, in fact, the
drummer is live business man we respect
and wish eternal well being.
